Their fate is still not in their own hands, India will be broken again when they resume their fight to survive in yet another winning contest against Scotland in the ICC T20 World Cup 2021 on Friday (November 5) . Afghanistan, two days after coming into Scotland’s T20 showpiece for all their enthusiasm and spirit, provides another great platform for their arch-opponents to win it big and boost their net run-rate, while hopefully others The results will go their way.
Despite Afghanistan’s destruction, India’s semi-final chances hang in balance due to consecutive defeats against Pakistan and New Zealand within eight days of the tournament. The situation remains do or die for Virat Kohli’s band of superstars as they head into their fourth match in the Super 12 stage.
Pakistan have already made it to the semi-finals with four straight victories and New Zealand are favored to move from Group 2 to the Men in Green in the last-four stage. However, it was a loss for the Kiwis against Namibia on Friday or Afghanistan and India next week. His tail will be up.
However, India will focus on what is under their control and not get bogged down in the conversation around scenarios and events. While they may not affect the outcome of the other teams’ group matches, a big win against Scotland is certainly within India’s reach.
After their twin failures against arch-rivals Pakistan and swampy team New Zealand, the Indian batsmen returned to form against Afghanistan’s bowling attack, considered very good by the cricket fraternity. Days after the dubious move of demoting him to number three, Rohit Sharma is back where he belongs, showing his class in signs that are unlucky for India’s upcoming opponents in Scotland and Namibia.
Finally, included in the playing XI after endless chatter around his absence, Ashwin not only took two wickets but was also very economical with the ball, conceding only 14 runs in his entire quota of four overs.
It has been exposed that Chakraborty is unprepared for high-pressure international cricket and it is unlikely that he will continue to play in the tournament.
Seamer Mohammed Shami will have his tail up after taking three wickets in the previous match and so will Jasprit Bumrah. Unless there are one or two injuries, India are unlikely to tinker with the combination that clicked so well in their last outing.
As far as Scotland is concerned, wicketkeeper Matthew Cross was caught on the stump-mic during their match against New Zealand, reminding his teammate and bowler Chris Greaves that the whole of India is supporting him.
The Kiwis beat them by 16 runs but a stunning win for Scotland would have made India’s task a lot easier. At the Dubai International Stadium on Friday, it will be a different ball game, though.
Scotland: Kyle Coetzer (captain), Richie Berrington, Dylan Buzz, Matthew Cross, Josh Davey, Alasdair Evans, Chris Greaves, Michael Leask, Callum McLeod, George Muncy, Safyan Sharif, Hamza Tahir, Craig Wallace, Mark Watt, Bradley Wheel.
